Planning - Shot plans - Task 7

The first few shots are going to be filmed outside someones house and will include close ups, establishing shots, a pan and a tracking shot. These will be combined together to start off with a variety of angles from mid to low to keep the audience interested from the start. The tracking shot will follow the young man who is being kidnapped as he walks down the street and will look over his shoulder as he walks.

The shots that will be filmed in the car will be filmed from the back seat whilst the two kidnappers are in the front and we will try to keep the camera as steady as the drive permits. If the camera moves around to much from being in the car then we may have to get rid of these scenes.

When the car catches up to the person being kidnapped more over the shoulder shots will be used so that the audience can see that the car is approaching whilst the character cannot. Then a shot from the side will be used to show the car pulling alongside him and will almost be from his point of view. The final shot in this sequence will be filmed from the drivers perspective so that we can get a close up of the character who is being kidnapped and the emotion in his face.

Whilst he is running away the camera work will use more tracking shots and pans to follow the character as he runs away and to keep him in the centre of the screen to show that he is important. Different shots that may be used could involve the use of tracking him again whilst he is running and following him at all times. The camera could do a 180 degree turn to follow him as he runs past the camera.

During the scenes where he is being bundled into the car he should seem open to being snatched and will be placed in a alleyway which will add to the sinister nature of the operation. Both sets of characters will come from opposite ends of the alleyway. The shots will portray the action from a variety of different angles and from different sides to add to the fast paced nature of the final scene.
